On 10 October 2018, the Committee on Foreign Affairs and the subcommittee on Security and Defence of the European Parliament held a SEDE Public Hearing on “Artificial Intelligence and Its Future Impact on Security”. Tim Sweijs was one of the speakers. “The security impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an issue of great concern that is fundamental […]
Op steeds hoger wordende toon en met toenemende geestdrift betoogde de directeur-generaal van een Chinees diplomatiek onderzoekscentrum afgelopen week in Abu Dhabi dat haar land een ‘win-winsituatie’ voor de mensheid wil en dat de Chinese filosofie dat mogelijk gaat maken. Daar hoort zeker ook spionage bij, was mijn eerste gedachte. Inmiddels weet minister Wiebes daarop […]
Tim Sweijs presents today at the Athens 2018 Crisis Management and Security International Conference on the need to raise our crisis literacy: how can we relearn from the lessons from the Cold War, and adapt to current circumstances? Tim will draw on the 2016 report Back to the Brink on the comeback of interstate crisis. […]
De midterm elections brachten een opmerkelijke paradox aan het licht. President Donald Trump trekt stemmen door in te spelen op angsten, maar verliest er nog meer door het bewust creëren van verdeeldheid en het zaaien van haat dat tot geweld leidt. Door de bombrieven die de afgelopen tijd bij vooraanstaande Democraten werden afgeleverd en de […]
The Global Commission on the Stability of Cyberspace (GCSC) today announced the release of its new Norm Package, featuring six new global norms to help promote the peaceful use of cyberspace.

While the final results have not yet come in, the results of the US mid-terms are mixed. Both parties have obtained their major goal: the Democrats took the House and the Republican expanded their control of the Senate. Yet, there is also plenty to be disappointed about on both sides. Here are some of the […]
Voor 375.000 euro kan je ook iets anders doen. Dat was mijn eerste gedachte toen ik de honderd vragen van Thierry Baudet over het VN-migratiepact las. Het ministerie van binnenlandse zaken berekende in 2011 dat een Kamervraag 3750 euro kost. Hoe het immigratiedebat in de afgelopen jaren is verhard blijkt uit Baudets Kamervragen. Hij trekt niet de […]
Since the dawn of the atomic age, nuclear deterrence in Europe has been primarily provided by the US, first through bilateral alliances and later within the NATO framework. Within this structure, US tactical nuclear weapons (TNWs) are currently based in the Netherlands (although this has never been confirmed nor denied by The Hague) and four […]
Amerikaanse presidenten, van Reagan tot Trump, beschuldigen landen ervan outlaw states of rogue states te zijn. Dat zijn landen die door een potentaat worden geleid en een bedreiging voor de wereldvrede zijn. Zo nodig moeten die met geweld tot de orde worden geroepen. Ik vraag me steeds vaker af wie Amerika zelf tot de orde roept. In eigen land krijgt […]
Poland recently completed a major reshuffle of personnel at its Foreign Ministry. Since the Law and Justice Party (PiS) came to power in 2015, Soviet-era graduates of Russia’s most prestigious academic institution – the Moscow State Institute of International Relations (MGIMO) – have been gradually dismissed from senior positions at home and abroad. Rather than […]
